I'm still waiting for the day, Georgia, Georgia.
I'm still waiting for the day, Georgia, Georgia.
I'm not going home tonight. I've worked up some appetite.
I'm just waiting for the day, Georgia, Georgia.
Bridges gonna burn soon. Guitars ring out in living rooms.
I just need one special word, Georgia.

Went to her apartment. Man you should have seen the look on her face, sometimes i? decide to stay up late but I am still so wide awake. I don't want to tax my breath. Or fall asleep in your caress.
I'm still waiting for the day, Georgia, Georgia.
You better take some time to figure it out, cause if you don't you gonna do without, Take some time to figure it out cause if you don't you gonna do without.
Take some time to figure it out cause if you don't you gonna do without.
Take some time to figure it out cause if you don't you gonna do without.

If I knew you'd guard your heart so jealously then I'd fight for you. There's nothing in this joyless world to see, there are no places that are left to see, there's just the wilderness, it's shame, if I knew you pushed away so savagely then I'd back off.

So, take it easy on me,
take it easy on me,
take it easy on me,
take it easy on me.
They lumped us into the same boat
Sinking on the same ship
Gasping with the same breath
They shout out with the same mouth
Whatever's deep inside me
Erupt from me entirely
Thaw me out completely
And I knew somehow I'd find you there and I hope you'd be weeeeeeeee?

    I'm pretty sure its "i've worked up some appetite." not "i fucked up some appetite."

    I love this song, and it's one of my favorites off of the album. I really appreciate the build up to the second half.

    The following lyrics are correct, straight from the inner album cover:

    (Words in parenthesis

    I'm still waiting for the day. Georgia, Georgia. I'm still waiting for the day. Georgia, Georgia. I'm not going home tonight; I've worked up some appetite. I'm still (just) waiting for the day. Georgia, Georgia. Bridge is gonna' burn soon; guitars ring out in living rooms. I just need one special word: Georgia. Went to her apartment. Man you should've seen the look on her face. Some of us like to stay up late, but I am still so wide awake. I don't wanna' catch my breath or fall asleep in your caress. I'm still waiting for the day. Georgia, Georgia. You better take some time to figure it out 'cause if you don't you're gonna' do without. Take some time to figure it out 'cause if you don't you're gonna' do without. Take some time to figure it out 'cause if you don't you're gonna' do without. Take some time to figure it out 'cause if you don't you're gonna' do without. If I knew you'd guard your heart so jealously, then I might feel: There's nothing in this joyless world to see. There are no praises that are left to sing. There's just a wilderness of shame. If I knew you'd push away so savagely, then I'd back off. So, take it easy on me. Take it easy on me. Take it easy on me. Take it easy on me. They lumped up (us) into the same boat, sinking on the same ship, gasping with the same breath they chatter with the same mouth. Whatever's deep inside me erupt from me entirely. Thaw me out completely. And I knew somehow I'd find you there, and I hoped you'd be real.

    i thought it was "some of just like to stay up late" and i thought the last few words were "you'd be with me"

    nevertheless, this and anchorage are the best two songs on the album.

This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
